    If you are looking for a supportive gym with great staff this is your place!! They create a fun welcoming atmosphere that is much better then a large, corporate gym. The trainers are knowledgeable, motivating and super supportive!

    I started working out at Forward Fitness about three months ago, and I absolutely love it! It is by FAR the best gym of which I have ever been a member. All of the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They are also extremely knowledgeable, not only on the exercises/lifts they are teaching but also in the way different parts of the body should move/function. This has been particularly helpful for me (and one of many reasons why I love this gym so much) because every now and then I have recurring injuries/muscle pain that come back from other sports I do, and all the trainers are helpful in being able to either modify parts of a workout for me or even giving me stretches or moves to do at the gym and at home to help relieve said pain. I love the FitCamp classes, and I appreciate that they have new and fun workouts to do for each day of the week. This really takes the pressure off me of having to come up with a new workout every time I go into the gym. I used to dread that! I also appreciate that FitCamps are capped off and kept small because this truly allows the trainers to be able to keep an eye on everyone for form and provide appropriate and timely feedback if I'm doing something incorrectly. I don't have to wait until I'm injured to realize I was doing it wrong; rather, they catch it early on. The small classes also make this gym more personable than any other gym I've attended. It really is a community of people looking out for one another, and the trainers definitely want what's best for all their members. I genuinely feel that they are helping me get stronger and accomplish my fitness goals. I always look forward to working out with them, and I highly recommend checking them out!

    Forward Fitness is a great place to go if you’re wanting variety in your workouts! Their friendly, knowledgeable staff can help you reach your fitness goals by focusing on your individual abilities to keep you injury-free in the process. Each trainer goes out of their way to make each member feel like family. Additionally, coaches check in with individuals regularly to assess progress towards whatever fitness goals they are working on, whether it’s making major strength and performance strides or simply building habits for a healthier life. For as long as I live in the area, I will remain a member of this amazing gym community!

    I absolutely love everything about this place! The classes are always challenging (in a great way) and there is a lot of variety. Class mates are friendly and approachable, and are always encouraging of fellow workout buddies. The coaches are all very knowledgeable and they each have their own method for teaching an exercise- which I find to be very helpful. In addition to the classes, they also offer a number of additional workshops and focus areas throughout the year that you can partake in. On top of that (but wait…there’s more!) there is a nutritionist on staff that you can work with to help you in reaching your personal fitness and fuel goals in the best way for you. Forward Fitness is truly unique - if you are looking to change up your routine, this is the place to do it. You will very quickly find yourself a part of the Forward Fitness family!

    I have been going to this gym for 1 year now and can honestly say it is the best gym I have ever been a member of. The coaches are top notch, the classes are challenging, and the community of members is like no other. I highly recommend Forward Fitness

    Growing up, I was never in to working out. I rolled my eyes at gym class and was never considered very sporty. As I got older, I would go to the gym to work on treadmills/stair climbers/ellipticals and also watch Bravo. After having two kids, I knew this wouldn’t cut it. Through a friend, I found Forward Fitness. From the moment I first came to do my assessment, I knew I was in the right place. It didn’t matter what I could or could not do. The focus was on improvement, and whatever that meant to me. Mike, Suzanne, Neil, and Cati are such a wonderful training staff. I love going to every class and never dread a workout. Through the encouragement of not only the staff, but other members, I have been able to complete two 100 workout challenges! Forward Fitness has made me stronger, healthier, and happier.

    I have been a part of the Forward Fitness family since November and I have loved it since day 1! The classes are small and feel very personalized. The trainers are all very focused on making sure you are doing everything the correct way to make sure you are getting the most out of each workout. I have learned more in the few months that I have been at Forward Fitness than I learned in the year or more I spent paying for a big gym. I have never been more motivated and excited about going to the gym to workout. I am so happy that I found this wonderful place and I am so proud of how strong I have become in just a few months!

    I love this gym! The staff is encouraging and wants the best for everyone. All the members are welcoming and friendly. Over the past couple years, I’ve not only continued to get stronger, but also created long lasting good habits. As a result, I’ve managed to reach my goal weight. I would recommend Forward Fitness to all!

    I have been coming to Forward Fitness for over three years. The people here are a true community and everyone is supportive of each other no matter what level of fitness. I walked in after a 10 year hiatus and now I’m here 5 days a week. The workouts are challenging and change up regularly so I don’t get bored. The trainers all bring something different to the table: kettlebells, weightlifting, sand bags, nutrition, personal training plans. This is a place where you will be welcomed, encouraged to do your best and FF will help you achieve your goals.

    No single place that I've chosen to spend my money has had anywhere near the positive impact on my life that Forward Fitness has. Mike, Suzanne, and Cati are phenomenal trainers and they have built a wonderful community with all the support you need to focus on your goals and live a healthier, happier life. I feel lucky to have stumbled upon this gym and I would recommend it to anyone, but even moreso to those who feel that a gym isn't for them. You just haven't found the right one.

    I can’t say enough great things about Forward Fitness! They have experienced trainers that are very knowledgeable and provide a fun atmosphere to workout. The workouts are always varied and can be leveled up or down depending on the person. They can also cater to injuries which is helpful. Forward Fitness always has new challenges throughout the year to motivate the members. I would highly recommend Forward Fitness!!
